Other users have noticed it, too. Emacs is affected by it even with defaults. Its built-in font choices give "Not found". Somebody in bugzilla suggests a hardcoded dependency on xorg-x11-fonts-misc, but it doesn't suffice IMO. Additionally, my first F10 installation gives poor font rendering quality in Firefox (and Emacs, for example). Comparing the list of installed fonts packages with my Rawhide inst is the first thing I'll do. -- Fedora release 10.90 (Rawhide) - Linux 2.6.27.5-109.fc10.i686 loadavg: 5.35 5.04 4.63 -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
